I have been told a public listing might go up as early as today.
I have also been told that once-a-day announcements are not annoying. Let me know if you feel that's too frequent and I can back off!
My team in Minneapolis !minnesota is hiring. There is nothing public yet, but if you're looking, hit me up.
A bunch of our stuff is #opensource (BSD two-clause for just about everything...maybe everything), and all of it has free trials, so https://www.perforce.com/downloads and https://swarm.workshop.perforce.com/
We support products on Windows, Mac, and #Linux. Occasionally, you might see some old Solaris or BSD servers (or some other random stuff), but that really doesn't happen much.
We support #git and #Jenkins integrations, as well as #maven and a bunch of other stuff I don't ever touch, but people on my team do.
Apache knowledge would be useful, but not required. My colleague who started the same day I did doesn't really do any scripting. He's pretty much a pure server performance guy. That said, we support APIs for #ruby, #python, #js, #groovy, #perl, #java, #c++ and #php. Also, #C knowledge would be useful
Basically, if you have any cross-platform experience at all, and are technical, you'd be a good fit. -

Low income supporter of #SoftwareFreedom? Balking at the price of buying a #GNU/ #Linux laptop from boutique suppliers like #Purism? Check out the #PineBook that #Pine64 offers for US$99 "on first come first served basis".
But ...
"... please bear in mind that we are offering the Pinebook at this price as a community service to PINE64, Linux and BSD communities. We make no profit from selling these units."

Periodic PSA:
Don't use `rm`
Use a tool like http://slackermedia.info/trashy/ to send files to your freedesktop.org Trash (or similar) and empty it later.

Hey do you know #xml and/or Publican, write in [mostly] proper English, and live in #Linux?
If you do, there's a job waiting for you as a technical editor. Let me know if you apply and I'll officially refer you.

From the #Slackware #Linux changelog on the 17th:
Sun Mar 17 20:40:15 UTC 2019
Saint Patrick was a gentleman
Who through strategy and stealth
Drove all the snakes from Ireland
Here's toasting to his health -
But not too many toastings
Lest you lose yourself, and then,
Forget the good Saint Patrick
And see all those snakes again. -

Geary by @gnome is absolutely the best desktop email client I've ever used, especially after the last update.
It works amazing with Gmail, and after the latest update, it automatically adds accounts from in the Gnome system settings. No more app-specific Google passwords! #linux #gnome

A good morning to you all. It is 10:15 PST on #Pi-day, and I have consumed my daily #YoCo ( #yogurt and #coffee ). #TZAG
Today, I’m going to try to get a little learning environment set up for #LAMP ( #Linux, #Apache, #MariaDB, #PHP ). The time is rapidly approaching when the current workyjob and I must part ways, and @amic does not yet make enough money 💰 to support me and my family members. -

Am I the first one ever to confuse sysctl (#linux thing for tuning /proc/sys params) with systemctl (#systemd thing for managing targets)?

When @Microsoft@twitter.activitypub.actor says it “loves @Linux@twitter.activitypub.actor it means to say #Microsoft loves @Windows@twitter.activitypub.actor, but nowadays M$ calls #Windows "#Linux"... it’s all about leveraging Linux(#Android) to spread Windows. How is that #love of Linux?

#Linux deprecates a.out support
"Linux supports ELF binaries for ~25 years now. a.out coredumping has bitrotten quite significantly and would need some fixing to get it into shape again but considering how even the toolchains cannot create a.out executables in its default configuration, let's deprecate a.out support and remove it a couple of releases later, instead."

@Xyc0 Ah, well, I feel like everything in #Linux is a hassle. ;P
